Astrophel And Stella - Sonnet Xcix Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBCABBCDEEEFF| When far spent Night perswades each mortall eye | A |
| To whome nor Art nor Nature graunteth light | B |
| To lay his then marke wanting shafts of sight | B |
| Clos'd with their quiuers in Sleeps armory | C |
| With windowes ope then most my mind doth lie | A |
| Viewing the shape of darknesse and delight | B |
| Takes in that sad hue which with th' inward night | B |
| Of his mazde powers keepes perfet harmony | C |
| But when birds charme and that sweete aire which is | D |
| Mornes messenger with rose enameld skies | E |
| Cals each wight to salute the floure of blisse | E |
| In tombe of lids then buried are mine eyes | E |
| Forst by their Lord who is asham'd to find | F |
| Such light in sense with such a darkned mind | F |
